NOTES TO CONDENSED CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS

(unaudited)

NOVEMBER 30, ~~2021~~2022

NOTE 1 – PRESENTATION OF INTERIM INFORMATION

The accompanying unaudited consolidated financial statements have been prepared by Pure Cycle Corporation ~~(Company)~~(Company) and include all adjustments that are, in the opinion of management, necessary to present fairly the financial position, results of operations and cash flows of the Company as of and for the three months ended November 30, ~~2021~~2022 and ~~2020.~~2021. The August 31, ~~2021~~2022 balance sheet was derived from the Company’s audited consolidated financial statements.

Certain information and footnote disclosures normally included in financial statements prepared in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America ~~(GAAP)~~(GAAP) have been condensed or omitted. It is suggested the accompanying consolidated financial statements and notes be read in conjunction with the consolidated financial statements and notes thereto included in the Company’s Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended August 31, ~~2021 (2021~~2022 (2022 Annual ~~Report)~~Report) filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission ~~(SEC)~~(SEC) on November ~~10, 2021.~~14, 2022. The results of operations for interim periods presented are not necessarily indicative of the operating results expected for the full fiscal year.

~~Coronavirus Aid, Relief, and Economic Security Act (CARES Act)~~

Since January 2020, the COVID-19 pandemic has caused substantial disruption in international and U.S. economies and markets. The impacts of the pandemic are continuing in 2021 but began to lessen as vaccines became widely available in the U.S, although there have been periodic increases in the number of cases in the U.S. due to vaccine hesitancy and the spread of COVID-19 variants. The pandemic has resulted in government restrictions of various degrees and effective at various times, including stay-at-home orders, bans on travel, limitations on the size of gatherings, limitations on the operations of businesses deemed non-essential, closures of work facilities, schools, public buildings and businesses, cancellation of events (including entertainment events, conferences, and meetings), quarantines, mask mandates and social distancing measures. Due to the outbreak of COVID-19 and related restrictions, the second development phase of Sky Ranch was delayed due to the extended time taken to approve the platted lots through the county government.

Use of Estimates

The preparation of financial statements in conformity with GAAP requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities and disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities at the date of the financial statements and the reported amounts of revenues and expenses during the reporting period. Estimates are used to account for certain items such as revenue recognition, dollar amount of reimbursable costs and collectability of reimbursable costs, costs of revenue for lot sales, share-based compensation, ~~deferred tax asset valuation,~~ and the useful lives and recoverability of long-lived assets. Actual results could differ from those estimates and assumptions due to risks and uncertainties, including uncertainty in the current economic ~~environment due to COVID-19.~~

During fiscal 2021, the Company determined the reimbursable public improvements, project management fees and interest income related to the Sky Ranch community being developed by the Company are probable of payment. Historically, due to a lack of tax base and no operating history for the Sky Ranch Community Authority Board (Sky Ranch CAB), the Company was unable to estimate when or if it would receive payment for these items and deferred recognition of them until cash was received. As a result of an established and growing tax base resulting from the success of the initial development, added mill levies, and additional unencumbered fees received by the Sky Ranch CAB, the Company believes repayment of the public improvements, payment of the project management fees, and interest income are deemed probable. Based on this the Company has recognized these items in the consolidated financial statements. The timing and amount of potential payments have been estimated based on growth trends utilizing current assessed values and historic growth rates which have been projected to current and contracted lot sales through the contractual obligation period.

environment.

Reclassifications

The Company has reclassified certain prior year information to conform to the current year presentation.

NOTE 2 – INVESTMENTS

Management determines the appropriate classification of its investments in U.S. Treasury debt securities at the time of purchase and re-evaluates such determinations each reporting period.

~~Table~~U.S. Treasury debt securities are classified as held-to-maturity when the Company has the positive intent and ability to hold the securities to maturity. On November 30, 2022, the Company had $15.1 million of ~~Contents~~investments classified as held-to-maturity, which are comprised entirely of Treasury Bills with maturity dates in March 2023. On November 30, 2022, the Company had just over $0.1 million in unamortized discount on Treasury Bills. Investments are being carried at amortized cost.

NOTE 23 – REIMBURSABLE PUBLIC IMPROVEMENTS AND NOTE RECEIVABLE FROM THE SKY RANCH CAB

The ~~Note~~Sky Ranch Community Authority Board (Sky Ranch CAB) and the Company’s agreements with the Sky Ranch CAB are described in greater detail in Notes 5 and 15 to the 2022 Annual Report.

The note receivable from the Sky Ranch CAB reports the balances owed by the Sky Ranch CAB to the Company for ~~reimbursable~~ public improvements paid for by the Company which are reimbursable from the Sky Ranch CAB, project management fees, and interest accrued on the unpaid balances related to the ongoing development of the Sky Ranch master planned ~~community, which is described in greater detail in Note 1 and Note 14 to the Company’s 2021 Annual Report.~~community. The Company has ~~paid~~advanced funds to the Sky Ranch CAB for the cost of public improvements at Sky Ranch which are the ultimate responsibility of the Sky Ranch CAB. During the second quarter of fiscal 2021, the Company determined that ~~the Sky Ranch CAB would be able to repay the company for~~repayment of those improvements was probable, along with the project management fees and interest on these ~~expenses.~~costs. Upon that determination, the Company began recording the reimbursable public improvements as a receivable from the Sky Ranch CAB (as opposed to the costs being ~~initially capitalized as land under development and subsequently~~ expensed as land

Table of Contents

development construction costs) and began recognizing project management fee revenue and interest income on the entire note receivable from the Sky Ranch CAB. Prior to that date, payment was not deemed to be probable; therefore, the Company capitalized those costs as land under development and subsequently expensed the reimbursable public improvements and did not recognize any project management fees or interest income due to the uncertainty of collectability. During the three months ended November 30, ~~2021, the note receivable – related party related to reimbursable public improvement costs~~2022, the Company ~~incurred~~spent $1.0 million on ~~behalf of~~public improvements which are payable by the Sky Ranch CAB to the Company. Since the Company believes the amounts are probable of ~~$4.1 million,~~collection, they have been added to the note receivable from the Sky Ranch CAB. Additionally, for the three months ended November 30, 2022, project management fees owed to the Company of ~~$0.2~~less than $0.1 million and interest income on the outstanding ~~amounts~~note receivable of ~~$0.4~~$0.2 million ~~which increased~~were also added to the note receivable. No payments were made on the note receivable ~~balance by $4.7 million.~~during the three months ended November 30, 2022 and 2021. Pursuant to the agreements with the Sky Ranch CAB, any payments received are initially applied to interest.

The following table summarizes the activity and balances associated with the note receivable from the Sky Ranch CAB:


		Three Months Ended
		November 30, 2022		November 30, 2021
Beginning balance	$	17,208	$	24,794
Additions		1,279		4,723
Payments received		—		—
Ending balance	$	18,487	$	$ 29,517

The note receivable from the Sky Ranch CAB accrues interest at 6% per annum. Public improvements which are not probable of reimbursement at the time of being incurred are considered contract fulfillment costs and ~~will be recognized in separate~~are recorded as land ~~under~~ development ~~accounts~~construction costs as ~~funds are expended. Once collectability is deemed to be probable, the reimbursable~~incurred. If public improvement costs ~~will be reclassified from~~are deemed probable of collection, the ~~land under development account and into~~costs are recognized as notes receivable - related party. The Company assesses the collectability of the note receivable from the Sky Ranch CAB, which includes reimbursable public improvements, project management fees and the related interest income, when events or circumstances indicate the amounts may not be recoverable. The Sky Ranch CAB has an obligation to repay the Company, but the ability of the Sky Ranch CAB to do so before the contractual termination dates is dependent upon the establishment of a tax base or other fee generating activities sufficient to ~~recover~~fund reimbursable costs incurred.

~~NOTE 3 – REVENUE~~

The Company’s revenue is primarily generated from the sale of lots to homebuilders, sales of water and wastewater taps, metered water and wastewater usage, and beginning in November 2021, from renting single-family homes. Detailed descriptions of the policies related to revenue recognition are included in Note 2 to the 2021 Annual Report. The following describes significant components of revenue for the three months ended November 30, 2021 and 2020.

~~Sale of finished lots~~ – For the three months ended November 30, 2021 and 2020, the Company recognized $2.9 million and $0.8 million of lot sale revenue, which was recognized using the percent-of-completion method for development costs incurred on contracts that are satisfied over time and are ongoing at Sky Ranch. As of November 30, 2021, the first phase is 99.5% complete and the first subphase of the second development phase is 43.4% complete.

The Company also recognizes revenue from the sale of finished lots, whereby the home builder pays for a ready-to-build finished lot and the sales price is paid in a lump-sum upon completion of the finished lot that is permit ready. The Company recognizes revenues at the point in time of the closing of the sale of a finished lot in which control transfers to the builder as the transaction cycle is complete and the Company has no further obligations for the lot. The Company recognized $0 and $1.6 million from ready-to-build finished lots for the three months ended November 30, 2021 and 2020.

~~Water and wastewater tap fees~~ – During the three months ended November 30, 2021 and 2020, the Company sold a total of 9 and 36 water and wastewater taps generating $0.3 million and $1.1 million in tap fee revenues. These taps were all sold in the first development phase at Sky Ranch and Wild Pointe.

~~Project management services~~ – During the three months ended November 30, 2021 and 2020, the Company recognized $0.2 million and $0 of project management revenue for managing the Sky Ranch development process. During the second quarter of fiscal 2021, the Company determined the Sky Ranch CAB would be able to pay the Company for project management services and began recognizing this revenue. Prior to that date, payment was not deemed to be probable; therefore, the Company had deferred recognition of the project management fees income it had earned.

Single-family rental ~~fees – Effective~~revenue

In November 1, 2021, the Company began ~~leasing 3~~renting single-family homes ~~it had constructed at Sky Ranch. Each home is rented pursuant~~and began recognizing lease income related to ~~a separate twelve-month~~these rental units. The Company generally rents its single-family properties under non-cancelable lease ~~agreement that requires monthly payments during the~~agreements with a term of one year. For both of the ~~lease.~~three-month periods ended November 30, 2022 and 2021, the Company reported less than $0.1 million of rental property revenues. The Company has begun construction on ~~a fourth house~~11 additional rental homes, which the Company believes will be available for rent at various dates throughout fiscal 2023, and reserved 46an additional 36 lots in ~~the second development phase~~Phases 2B, 2C and 2D of Sky Ranch for rental units; therefore, the Company believes this could become a reportable operating segment in the future once its operations become material.

~~Deferred Revenue~~Special facility projects and other revenue

Pure Cycle receives fees from customers including municipalities and area water providers for contract operations services. These fees are recognized as earned, typically monthly, plus charges for additional work performed. Additionally, the Company performs certain construction activities at Sky Ranch. The activities performed include construction and maintenance services. The revenue for both types of services are invoiced and recognized as special facility projects revenue. For both of the three-month periods ended November 30, 2022 and 2021, the Company recognized less than $0.1 million of special facility projects and other revenue, an immaterial amount of which is from work performed for the Sky Ranch CAB, a related party.

The Company receives deposits or pre-payments from oil and gas operators to reserve water for use in future well drilling operations. When the operators use the water, the Company recognizes ~~certain~~the revenue for these payments in the metered water usage from the commercial customers line on the statement of operations.

The Company recognizes lot sales over time as construction activities progress ~~for lots sold pursuant to lot development agreements~~ and not necessarily when payment is received. For example, the Company ~~will frequently~~may receive milestone payments before revenue

can be recognized (i.e., prior to the Company completing cumulative progress which faithfully represents the transfer of goods and services to the customer) which results in the Company recording deferred revenue. The Company recognizes this revenue into income as construction activities progress, measured based on costs incurred compared to total ~~expected~~estimated costs of the project, which management believes is a faithful representation of the transfer of goods and services to the customer.

Revenue allocated to remaining performance obligations such as described above represents contracted revenue that has not yet been recognized, which includes unearned revenue and amounts that will be invoiced and recognized as revenue in future periods. During November 2021, the Company received a milestone payment of $3.8 million for outstanding open contracts related to lot sales in the first subphase of the second development phase at Sky Ranch. This revenue is being recognized over time.

NOTE 45 – FAIR VALUE MEASUREMENTS

Fair value accounting guidance includes a hierarchy that prioritizes the inputs to valuation techniques used to measure fair value. The hierarchy gives the highest priority to unadjusted quoted prices in active markets for identical assets or liabilities (Level 1 inputs) and the lowest priority to unobservable inputs (Level 3 inputs). ~~The Company maintains policies and procedures to value instruments using what management believes to be the best and most relevant data available.~~

The carrying value for certain of the Company’s financial instruments (i.e., cash and cash equivalents, investments in U.S. Treasury Bills, restricted cash, accounts receivable, notes receivable from related parties, accounts payable, accrued liabilities, the SFR Note and ~~accrued liabilities) approximates~~the Lost Creek Note) materially approximate their fair value because of their short-term nature and generally negligible credit losses.

NOTE 1314 – INCOME TAXES

The income tax provision for interim periods is determined using an estimate of the annual effective tax rate, adjusted for discrete items. As of November 30, ~~2021,~~2022, the Company is estimating an annual effective tax rate of approximately 25%. Each quarter, the estimate of the annual effective tax rate is updated, and if the estimated effective tax rate changes, a cumulative adjustment is made. There is a potential for volatility of the effective tax rate due to various factors.

The provision for income taxes is recorded at the end of each interim period based on the Company’s best estimate of its effective income tax rate expected to be applicable for the full fiscal year ~~taking into account~~considering any items requiring discrete recognition. Income tax information for the three months ended November 30, 2022 and 2021 ~~and 2020 are~~is as follows:

The results of operations reported and summarized below are not necessarily indicative of future operating results, and future results could differ materially from those anticipated in forward-looking statements (refer to “Disclosure Regarding Forward-Looking Statements” in this Form 10-Q; ~~Part II, Item 1A. "Risk Factors" in this Form 10-Q;~~ and Part I, Item 1A. “Risk Factors” in our ~~2021~~2022 Annual Report for further discussion).

We are a diversified water resource and land development company. At our core, we are a wholesale water and wastewater service provider, and we develop land we own into master planned communities. Our newest business is the development of single-family homes held for rental purposes. Both the land development and single-family home rental lines of business generate customers and usage fees for our water and wastewater resource development business.

Recent Developments and Economic Conditions

The housing market experienced tremendous growth for several years through 2022. However, in the third quarter of 2022, the housing market deteriorated rapidly. This has continued through the date of this filing and shows signs of continuing into 2023. This deterioration was caused by multiple factors including; the war in Ukraine, which has impacted supplies of food, fertilizer and fuel, increasing inflation; and the ongoing COVID-19 pandemic which continues to impact global economies, mortgage interest rates, the rate of inflation, supply chains, distribution networks and consumer behavior around the world. The United States Federal Reserve System (Federal Reserve) remains aggressive in its actions to combat inflation, which is having a negative impact on the housing market due to rising mortgage rates. As a result, 30-year fixed mortgage rates continued to rise and ended the quarter at their highest level in over 15 years. The magnitude and speed of these recent rate increases has caused many buyers to pause and reconsider a home purchase.

Despite this, we believe several long-term land development and housing market fundamental factors remain positive. For example, available lots and housing supply-demand remain imbalanced due to a decade-plus of underproduction of new homes in relation to population growth, and low resale home inventory. While we remain confident in the long-term growth prospects for the industry given these and other factors, the current demand for new homes is subject to continued uncertainty due to many factors. The combination of sharply higher mortgage interest rates since early 2022, several years of rising housing prices, elevated inflation, and various other macroeconomic and geopolitical concerns are moderating housing demand, which are expected to continue into 2023. Like many other businesses, our contractors have experienced delays in receiving materials and parts, rising costs, and labor shortages. However, we have been able to adjust our purchases and operations enough to reduce the impact these factors have on our construction and other activities. Specifically, we have delayed the start of construction on Phase 2B to avoid incurring development costs when market demand has declined, and it is uncertain how long demand will remain depressed. Given current conditions, we plan to continue to monitor market dynamics and surrounding community performance to determine timing of additional construction expenditures at Sky Ranch. We believe our reasonably priced lots and the low inventory of entry level housing in the Denver market will help Sky Ranch navigate the changing market better than other surrounding and significantly higher priced communities. The severity and duration of the COVID-19 pandemic and the Ukraine war, as well as the current inflationary environment, remain uncertain and it is difficult for us to estimate the extent to which these conditions will impact our financial results and operations in future periods.

Our future performance and the strategies we implement (and adjust or refine as necessary or appropriate) will depend significantly on prevailing economic, homebuilding industry, credit, and financial market conditions and on a stable and constructive political and regulatory environment (particularly regarding housing and mortgage loan financing policies). The Federal Reserve’s aggressive raising of the federal funds interest rate and other measures during calendar 2022 to moderate persistent U.S. inflation, and the further actions it has stated it intends to take, are expected to be an ongoing headwind for the housing market into 2023 as they have elevated mortgage loan interest rates and created macroeconomic uncertainty and volatility across financial markets. In addition, we and our homebuilding partners continue to experience services and supply constraints and rising and volatile raw material prices. Prolonged supply chain disruptions and other production-related challenges could extend or delay our construction cycle times and intensify construction-related cost pressures beyond our experience in fiscal 2022. In addition, consumer demand for our homes, and our ability to grow our scale,

Table of Contents

revenues, and returns in fiscal 2023 could be materially and negatively affected by the above-described monetary policy impacts or other factors that curtail mortgage loan availability, employment or income growth or consumer confidence in the U.S. or in the Colorado markets. The potential extent and effect of these factors on our business is highly uncertain, unpredictable, and outside our control, and our past performance should not be considered indicative of our future results.

Additionally, as the COVID-19 pandemic continues, we continue to enforce many safety measures enacted to protect the health and well-being of our employees, customers, business partners, and their families. We have been able to maintain our level of efficiency with the use of video conferencing and electronic data sharing platforms. We were informed that our builder customers continue to use precautionary measures to ensure the safety of their employees, customers, business partners, and their families. The most dramatic impact on our operations has been the delay in inspections, the permit process and other activities requiring the involvement of governmental agencies due to employee shortages and pandemic-related restrictions imposed on their operations. All our operations are in Colorado and travel and related restrictions have not impacted our operations.

Our Business Strategy

~~Over the past 30+ years,~~

For more than three decades we have accumulated a large portfolio of valuable water rights and land interests in Colorado. We have added an extensive network of wholesale water production, storage, treatment and distribution systems, and wastewater collection and treatment systems that we use to serve domestic, commercial, and industrial ~~customers~~water demands in the eastern Denver metropolitan region. Our primary land asset, Sky Ranch, is in one of the most active development areas in the Denver metropolitan region along the rapidly developing I-70 corridor, and we are developing lots at Sky Ranch for residential, commercial, retail, and light industrial uses. We also have launched a single-family rental business where we ~~are renting~~rent homes in Sky Ranch to families under annual lease agreements. We plan to expand this new line of business to more than 200 rental units over the next several years.

Although we currently report our results of operations ~~in two segments,~~through our water and wastewater resource development segment and our land development segment, we operate these segments as a cohesive business designed to provide a cost effective, sustainable, and value-added business enterprise. ~~As our single-family rental business grows and becomes material, it could likely become our third reportable business segment.~~

Water and Wastewater

Water resources throughout the western United States and more prominently in Colorado are a scarce and valuable resource. Our portfolio of ~~29,500~~over 29,900 acre-feet of water is comprised of groundwater, designated basin groundwater, and surface water supplies. Our other significant water assets include 26,000 acre-feet of adjudicated reservoir sites, two wastewater reclamation facilities, ~~multiple~~ water treatment facilities, potable and raw water storage facilities, wells and water production facilities, and roughly 50 miles of water distribution and wastewater collection lines. Our water supplies and wholesale facilities are in southeast Denver, an area which is limited in both water availability and infrastructure to produce, treat, store, and distribute water and wastewater. We believe this provides us with a unique competitive advantage in offering these services.

We provide wholesale water and wastewater service to local governments ~~including~~for both residential and commercial customers. The local governments we service include the Rangeview Metropolitan District ~~(Rangeview District)~~(Rangeview District), Arapahoe County, the Sky Ranch Community Authority Board ~~(Sky~~(Sky Ranch ~~CAB)~~CAB), and the Elbert and Highway 86 Commercial Metropolitan District ~~(Elbert~~(Elbert 86 ~~District)~~District). Our mission is to provide sustainable, reliable, high-quality water to our customers and collect, treat, and reuse wastewater using advance water treatment systems, which produce high quality reclaimed water we can reuse for outdoor irrigation and industrial demands. By using and reusing our water supplies, we proactively manage our valuable water rights in the water-scarce Denver, Colorado region which dramatically reduces the environmental impact of our water resource operations. We design, permit, construct, operate and maintain wholesale water and wastewater systems that we own or operate on behalf of governmental entities. We also design, permit, construct, operate, and maintain retail distribution and collection systems that we own or exclusively operate on behalf of our governmental customers. Additionally, we handle administrative functions, including meter reading, billing and collection of monthly water and wastewater revenues, regulatory water quality monitoring, sampling, testing, and reporting requirements to the Colorado Department of Public Health and Environment.

Revenues for our water operations are dependent on us growing the number of customers we serve. If we are unable to add customers to our systems and sell taps to builders, our revenues could be negatively impacted. We currently are the developer of the Sky Ranch ~~community~~Master Planned Community which is the main driver of our tap sales. Additionally, prolonged periods of hot and dry weather generally cause increased water usage for watering lawns, washing cars, and keeping parks irrigated. Conversely, prolonged periods of dry weather

Table of Contents

could lead to drought restrictions and limited water availability. Despite our substantial water supply, customers may be required to cut back water usage under such drought restrictions which would negatively impact metered usage revenues. We have addressed some of this vulnerability by instituting minimum customer charges which are intended to cover fixed costs of operations under all likely weather conditions.

Land Development

Our Land Development segment is primarily focused on ~~the~~ developing the Sky Ranch Master Planned Community located along the booming I-70 corridor to provide residential, commercial, retail, and light industrial lots. Sky Ranch is zoned to include up to ~~3,400~~3,200 single-family and multifamily homes, parks, open spaces, trails, recreational centers, and schools. Additionally, Sky Ranch is zoned to include over two million square feet of retail, commercial, and light industrial space, which is the equivalent of approximately ~~1,600~~1,800 residential units, meaning the Sky Ranch community at build-out will include a total of roughly 5,000 residential and equivalent units. Our land development activities include the design, permitting, and construction of all the horizontal infrastructure, including, storm water, drainage, roads, curbs, sidewalks, parks, open space, trails, and other infrastructure to deliver “ready to build” finished lots to home builders and commercial customers. Our land development activities generate revenue from the sale of finished lots as well as construction revenues from activities where we construct infrastructure on behalf of others. Land development revenues come from our home builder customers under specific agreements for the delivery of finished lots. Additionally, pursuant to certain agreements with the Sky Ranch CAB and its related metropolitan districts, on their behalf we construct public infrastructure such as roads, curbs, storm water, drainage, sidewalks, parks, open space, trails etc., the costs of which are reimbursed to us by the Sky Ranch CAB through funds generated from property taxes, fees or the issuance of municipal bonds.

Our land development activities provide a strategic complement to our water and wastewater services because a significant component of any master planned community is providing high quality domestic water, irrigation water, and wastewater to the community. Having control over land and the water and wastewater services enables us to build infrastructure for potable water and irrigation distribution, wastewater and storm water collection, roads, parks, open spaces, and other investments efficiently and to manage delivery of these investments to match take-down commitments from our home builder customers without significant excess capacity in any of these investments.

We have been developing the Sky Ranch community since 2017. We are developing it in phases, which is anticipated to take ~~at least~~approximately eight to ten more years until ~~its~~it is fully built out. In 2017, we began the initial development phase of Sky Ranch when we entered ~~into~~ separate contracts with Richmond American Homes, Taylor Morrison, and KB Home, pursuant to which we sold a total of 505 ~~total~~ single-family, detached residential lots at Sky Ranch. Pursuant to these agreements, we were obligated to construct infrastructure and other public improvements as well as wholesale infrastructure improvements (i.e., a wastewater reclamation facility and wholesale water facilities), all of which are ~~substantially~~ complete as of November 30, 2021. As of November 30, 2021, we have incurred $35.8 million of the total estimated $35.9 million in costs related to the development of the first phase of Sky Ranch. We anticipate all the remaining estimated costs will be incurred during fiscal 2022. We believe most of the remaining costs will be reimbursable to us from the Sky Ranch CAB as described in greater detail below. The total cost of the initial development phase included $32.2 million of estimated public improvements which are reimbursable to us from the Sky Ranch CAB. Of this amount, as of November 30, 2021, we have received a total of $10.9 million in reimbursements from the Sky Ranch CAB. We believe remaining reimbursables, and associated interest, will be repaid to us from future fees, property taxes, and municipal bonds generated by the Sky Ranch CAB as the project continues to grow its assessed value and tax base. As homes at Sky Ranch have sold faster than anticipated (as of November 30, 2021, there are approximately 435 homes sold and occupied in the first development phase), and assessed values have exceeded early estimates, the Sky Ranch CAB has developed an established tax basis, which we believe supports the intent and ability of the Sky Ranch CAB to repay us being probable of occurrence. We also believe a substantial portion of the amounts owed to us by the Sky Ranch CAB will be repaid when the Sky Ranch CAB issues municipal bonds. We anticipate the next bond offering will be during our fiscal 2022.

During our fiscal 2021, we began construction on the second development phase at Sky Ranch. For this phase, we entered into separate contracts with KB Home, Lennar Colorado, Melody (a DR Horton Company) and Challenger Homes to sell 804 single-family attached and detached residential lots at Sky ~~Ranch.~~Ranch, and we retained 46 lots for use in our single-family home rental segment. The second development phase will incorporate approximately 250 acres and is planned to be completed in four ~~sub-phases.~~sub-phases (referred to as Phase 2A, 2B, 2C and 2D). Due to our strong performance in the first phase of the Sky Ranch project, we were able to realize an

~~Table of Contents~~

approximate 40% increase in our average lot prices. For example, we increased our sales price for a 50’ foot lot from $75,000 to $108,000 and added an escalation clause that increases the prices depending on timing of payments. The timing of cash flows includes certain milestone deliveries such as the completion of governmental approvals for final plats, installation of wet utilities, and final completion of lot deliveries.

In February 2021, we began construction on ~~the first subphase of the second development phase~~Phase 2A at Sky Ranch, which is platted for 229 residential lots. We have retained ten of these lots for use in our single-family rental business. As of November 30, ~~2021,~~2022, we have received plats and substantially completed ~~the grading~~wet and ~~wet~~dry utilities, ~~installation~~roads, and sidewalks for ~~the first subphase.~~Phase 2A. Contracts with three of the four homebuilders include milestone payments as construction ~~progresses.~~progresses, with the contract with the fourth homebuilder having one payment due at delivery of the finished lot (i.e. the transfer of the title). As of November 30, 2022, we have received substantially all payments related to the sale of the 219 lots in Phase 2A, which totaled $18.4 million. We recognize ~~the~~ revenue earned under these contracts over time using the percentage of completion method to measure progress. As a result of the construction activities completed on this first subphase of the second development phase, we have received a total of $7.7 million in milestone payments. We estimate the first subphase is just over 43% complete,progress, which ~~resulted in~~aligns the recognition of ~~$2.7 million of lot sale~~ revenue ~~during~~with the requisite service period. During the three months ended November 30, ~~2021. The final milestone payments~~2022 and 2021, due to the construction progress, we recognized $0.5 million and $2.9 million of ~~$3.6~~lot sale revenue related to construction at Sky Ranch. Phase 1 of the Sky Ranch development is complete, and all revenue has been recognized. Phase 2A is

approximately 80% complete, for which we have recognized $14.6 million ~~from these three builders will be due when we complete~~of lot sales revenue since construction began on Phase 2A, with the ~~lots, which is anticipated to be in fiscal 2022. The~~ remaining ~~$6.4~~$3.8 million of revenue ~~will~~to be recognized over time as ~~the first subphase of~~Phase 2A construction is completed, which we expect towill be ~~substantially done with this first subphase within twelve-months.

We will receive $7.0 million in cash as control~~end of ~~the completed lots is transferred to that builder.~~our fiscal 2023.

Payments for lot sales and the related revenue for ~~the remaining three subphases of the second development phase~~Phases 2B, 2C, and 2D will occur as construction of those phases occurs. We believe ~~the next subphase~~ construction of Phase 2B will begin in the ~~fall~~summer of 2023, which we delayed the start of Phase 2B due to the slowing of the housing market in late 2022. We further believe it will take approximately three more years to complete construction and sell the finished lots in all four subphases ~~of the second development phase,~~ depending on the market conditions and permitting process.

In addition to the lot sales ~~and reimbursables~~ described above, from the start of development at Sky Ranch through November 30, ~~2021,~~2022, we have received ~~$14.2~~$18.5 million of water and wastewater tap fees from the ~~three~~ homebuilders, which is for all 505 taps sold in Phase 1 and ~~we expect an additional $1.0 million~~117 of ~~tap fees will be received during fiscal 2022 related to the first development phase.~~219 taps sold in Phase 2A. Timing of tap sales ~~on the second development phase~~ is dependent on when homebuilders begin requesting building permits. ~~Total~~Fees charged per water tap ~~revenue from the 219 lots under contract with the homebuilders~~ are dependent on lot sizes and average water ~~use~~usage across a broad range of housing product types including duplexes and ~~townhomes, which~~townhomes. For Phase 2A we estimate water and wastewater tap fees will exceed $4.0 million.

Single-Family Rentals

During our fiscal 2021, we launched a new line of business we are referring to as our single-family rental business. During ~~our initial development phase~~Phase 1 of Sky Ranch, we retained ownership of four residential lots for use in this business. As of November 30, ~~2021,~~2022, we have finished building three single-family homes which we own, maintain, and have leased to qualified renters under one-year lease terms. ~~The~~Construction of the fourth home isbegan in ~~the planning~~2022 and ~~permitting stage,~~it was completed and ~~we expect~~rented to ~~begin construction before the end of our second quarter of fiscal~~a qualified renter in December 2022.

Lease income is recorded monthly as earned. We began recognizing monthly lease income for the first three rental units on November 1, 2021.

~~COVID-19~~Results of Operations

Executive Summary

For the ~~COVID-19 pandemic continues,~~three months ended November 30, 2022, we ~~have continued~~generated net income of $0.2 million, a decline from the comparable period in 2021 of $1.3 million or 89%. The decrease was primarily driven by decreased lot sales being recognized as we slowed construction on Phase 2A due to ~~enforce many safety measures enacted to protect~~ the ~~health~~decline in the housing market and well-being of our employees, customers, business partners, and their families. While state and local mandates have been eased, we continue to encourage voluntary vaccinations and healthy practices such as hand washing, disinfecting, social distancing, and face coverings when necessary. We have been able to maintain our level of efficiency with the use of video conferencing and electronic data sharing platforms. We were informed that our builder customers also took precautionary measures to ensure the safety of their employees, customers, business partners, and their families. These measures varied by builder. As a result, some of our builder customers reported material net housing order declinesweather conditions resulting in ~~2021. However, they are also reporting material increases in orders since the stay-at-home orders have been reduced. The most dramatic impact on our operations has been~~ the delay in ~~inspections, the permit process~~planned landscaping construction, and a reduction in water being used by oil and gas operators electing to drill wells in other counties due to lease deadlines and other ~~activities requiring governmental agencies due~~factors outside our control. The items noted above were partially offset by one time income events related to ~~expansive work restrictions imposed~~additional land use payments received from oil and gas operators for future drilling purposes and interest income recognized on ~~their operations. We expect COVID-19 to continue to play a role~~the note receivable from the Sky Ranch CAB.

Table of Contents

in potential delays related to the second filing at Sky Ranch due to rapidly changing governmental orders, city and country shutdowns, and public health concerns. Mainly, we have experienced delays in the permitting process through the county which has delayed the construction progress of the Phase two of the Sky Ranch development. All our operations are located in Colorado and travel and related restrictions have not impacted our operations. Like many other businesses, our contractors have experienced delays in receiving materials and parts, but we have been able to adjust our purchases and operations enough to reduce the impact this has had on our construction and other activities.

For the ~~first quarter~~three months ended November 30, 2022, total revenue decreased as compared to 2021, primarily due to reduced revenue related to lot sales as Phase 2A, which is nearly 80% complete, was slowed due to the declining housing market, and Phase 2B has not started yet due to the slowing housing market. These declines were coupled with lower water fees recognized due to less construction and less initial seeding irrigation water used in our service area in 2022, and a reduction in tap sales also due to the slowing of ~~fiscal~~the housing market.

For the three months ended November 30, 2022, ~~we generated~~costs of revenue increased as compared to 2021, primarily due increased WISE water purchases and increased allocations of payroll costs incurred in our water and wastewater operations. Additionally, due to the fact that our Sky Ranch water and wastewater systems are relatively new, the systems are not operating at full capacity at this time which impacts the productivity of the infrastructure as the facilities are designed to operate at full capacity. Until they are, costs are expected to remain volatile and not necessarily increase and decrease with the related revenues.

For the three months ended November 30, 2022, general and administrative expense remained consistent with 2021.

For the three months ended November 30, 2022, other income, net ~~income of $1.5~~increased $1.3 million or $0.06 per common share. This is an increase of 79.2% over the first quarter of fiscal 2021 net income of $0.8 million or $0.04 per common share.

~~Costs of revenue decreased in~~For the ~~first quarter of fiscal~~three months ended November 30, 2022, as compared to 2021 primarily due to decreases in land development costs due to phase one being nearly complete. Additionally, we are now recording the reimbursable public improvements as a receivable from the Sky Ranch CAB resulting in lower cost of sales being recorded for land development activities at Sky Ranch.

General and administrative expense increased in the first quarter of fiscal 2022 as compared to 2021 primarily due to increased head count and increases in certain legal and professional fees due to the second development phase at Sky Ranch.

Net other income increased in the first quarter of fiscal 2022 as compared to 2021 primarily due to interest income recognized on the outstanding note receivable related to reimbursable public improvements.

~~Income tax expense increased in the first quarter of fiscal 2022 as compared to 2021 primarily due to higher pre-tax net income during the quarter.~~

If we delay starting Phase 2B beyond our current expected start date, we would likely spend and receive significantly less than the Sky Ranch CAB due to recurring tax payments received by the Sky Ranch CAB or from one or more bond issuances. There are no assurances the Sky Ranch CAB will be able to issue bonds during this period; however, based on discussions with the Sky Ranch CAB board, we believe the Sky Ranch CAB will complete one or more bond offerings for at least $16.0 million in the next twelve months.amounts noted above. We believe future revenues from water and wastewater tap fees as well as progress payments from our homebuilder customers and our existing cash balances will fund our obligations for the next 12 months.

Single-Family Rental Construction Contract

In fiscal 2022 we entered two separate contracts with a local builder to construct eleven rental units at Sky Ranch to be used in our single-family rental business. The total contracted costs for all eleven units is $3.6 million, which as of November 30, 2022, we had incurred $1.8 million of costs related to the construction of these units. We anticipate incurring the remaining $1.8 million in our fiscal 2023.

ECCV Capacity Operating System

The Rangeview District may purchase water produced from East Cherry Creek Valley Water and Sanitation District’s ~~(ECCV)~~(ECCV) Land Board system, which we would pay for pursuant to our funding agreements with the Rangeview District. Our costs associated with the use of the ECCV system were a flat fee of ~~eight thousand dollars~~$8,000 per month from January 1, 2013 through December 31, 2021. From January 1, 2021 through April 2032, the fee decreased to ~~three thousand dollars~~$3,000 per month. Additionally, we pay a fee per 1,000 gallons of water produced from the ECCV system, which is included in the water usage fees charged to customers. ~~The ECCV system is anticipated to continue to cost us approximately ten thousand dollars per month to maintain going forward.~~

South Metropolitan Water Supply Authority ~~(SMWSA)~~(SMWSA) and the Water Infrastructure Supply Efficiency Partnership ~~(WISE)~~(WISE)

In exchange for funding the Rangeview District’s obligations in WISE, we have the sole right to use and reuse the Rangeview District’s 9% share of the WISE water and infrastructure to provide water service to the Rangeview District’s customers and to receive the revenue from such service.

For the three months ended November 30, 2022, operating activities used a net $0.8 million of cash, which is due to positive net income being offset by the use of cash to fund construction activities (including the public improvements) at Sky Ranch, and timing of when payments are remitted to vendors. We anticipate continuing to spend cash for the construction activities at Sky Ranch for the foreseeable future.

For the three months ended November 30, 2022, investing activities used $17.2 million in cash. The majority of this was related to us purchasing $15.0 million of treasury notes to capitalize on increased interest rates and the purchase of three water wells in the Lost Creek Designated Groundwater Basin for $0.3 million.

For the three months ended November 30, 2022, financing activities used $0.1 million of cash, mainly due to the acquisition of the remaining CAA obligations.

Evaluation of Disclosure Controls and Procedures

We maintain disclosure controls and procedures as defined in Rule 13a-15(e) of the Exchange Act that are designed to ensure that information required to be disclosed in our reports filed or submitted to the SEC under the Exchange Act is recorded, processed, summarized and reported within the time periods specified by the SEC’s rules and forms, and that information is accumulated and communicated to management, including the principal executive officer and principal financial officer, as appropriate to allow timely decisions regarding required disclosures.

The President and the Chief Financial Officer evaluated the effectiveness of disclosure controls and procedures during our fiscal ~~2021,~~2022, as well as of November 30, ~~2021,~~2022, pursuant to Rule 13a-15(b) under the Exchange Act. Based on the fiscal 2021 evaluation, the President

~~Table of Contents~~

and the Chief Financial Officer each concluded that, during fiscal ~~2021~~2022 and as of November 30, ~~2021,~~2022, our disclosure controls and procedures (as defined in Rules 13a-15(e) and 15d-15(e) under the Exchange Act) were not effective due to a material weakness in internal controls over financial reporting resulting from ineffective controls related to management’s preparation and review of spreadsheets which compromised the integrity of the spreadsheets used to support and record transactions related to the public improvement reimbursable amounts and related interest income. To address this material weakness, management devoted, and plans to continue to devote, significant effort and resources to the remediation and improvement of its internal control over financial reporting by implementing additional steps in the review process of various complex schedules that support accounting entries on a monthly and quarterly basis or moving these manual tracking and reconciliation processes to a more automated process through the purchase of a software system. Management will continue to assess the new controls and procedures throughout fiscal 2022 before it is able to conclude the material weakness over internal controls is fully remediated.effective.
